> Using a variable on the left of 'matches' fails in 6.2.0.FInal, when it worked in 6.1.0.Final.  E.g.
> when
>   Fact( $field : field )
>   RegEx( $field matches pattern )
> results in
> [Error: unable to resolve method: defaultpkg.RegEx.$field() [arglength=0]]
> [Near : {... $field ~= pattern ....}]
> This can be worked around for the positive case by simply moving the constraint, e.g.
> when
>   RegEx( $pattern : pattern )
>   Fact( field matches $pattern )
> But it makes it impossible to find facts that are not matched by any regex, e.g.
> when
>   Fact( $field : field )
>   not RegEx( $field matches pattern )
